It is impressive; however, it appears to be better suited for a Queen owing to the feminine aspects of the drapery. I guess in this time period it may have been appropriate. To each his or her own.
Is QE2’s bed chamber blocked off, to be showed 50 years later or are there plans to show it sooner? How many rooms in the palace can serve as Regnant bedrooms for future generations? Do they recycle bedrooms?
The private apartments are used over and over again. Prince Philip died in the Blue Room. Before him Prince Albert had died in the same room in 1861, as had William IV in 1837 and George IV in 1830.
Not really. This is part of the State Apartments. The private apartments are much more of a normal size. The rooms at Sandringham are positively tiny. Apparently George V could lie in his bed, which was against the wall, and from his bed he could touch the opposite wall.
@@michaelmontagu3979 thank you for your replies to my questions. I am surprised at Sandringham size given it was a newer build. Then again, Queen Victoria was fairly short and George V was not.
@@Familylawgroup You know, George V wasn't very tall. He was only about 5 foot 7 inches. Some of the rooms at Sandringham are tiny and not very welcoming. Some have a very oppressive atmosphere.
Poor Vic, the green and purple is horrible 😂 but I guess we’ll have to wait 300 years for her choices to rot before it’s taken back to a nice blue floral and gold
Beautiful embroidery
Amazing part of history. Thank you for the recollections !
The blue and gold sounds pretty
Sorry. This is all gaudy and ugly on top.
And very Bourbon!
Yes! It’s such a shame that they did away with it!
Gaudy? Your majesty that bed looked beautiful
It’s beautiful from a historical standpoint…but it is pretty gaudy.
As another comment has already pointed out, the Prince of Wales was not Regent in 1790. His regency was from 1811.
Made similar comment, and then read down and promptly deleted it 🙂. Liked.

Georges Jacob was a very, very talented cabinetmaker
Exquisite
splendid
If someone presented me with this guest room, not one complaint would you hear from me.
More items from Carlton House please. What a loss!
He wasn’t regent in 1790
Purple and green do not go well together 😊 But beautiful😊!!

Is this similar to the monarch’s bed chambers in the last 100 years? Are most of the bed chambers in Windsor of the same size?

What kind of mattress was used.
Custom made. They didn't have standard sizes.
Probably horsehair and feathers.
Trust His mistress appreciated this bed as His Majesty was "performing his Royal duty!" Pity the poor poor!!!
The bed held him?

Ikr! What was she thinking? Look how beautiful the blue was!
And red walls!
❤😮😊
The wifi sucked.
